He said the ruling party is fully behind the Handshake between President Uhuru Kenyatta and ODM leader Raila Odinga but warned that the
He called upon all political parties to respect women noting that it was absurd for ODM to expel MP Aisha Jumwa and yet the party claims to support the two-thirds gender rule. The DP was accompanied by Kiambu governor Ferdinand Waititu, deputy James Nyoro and a host of MPs including area MP Githua Wamacukuru, among others
Waititu said it was unfortunate that the Jubilee leadership was listening and practicing counsel by Raila who it defeated during the 2017 General Election. Elsewhere, Jubilee leaders allied to Ruto called for unity in the top leadership to quell a possible political fallout.
Uasin Gishu Governor Jackson Mandago said Uhuru and Ruto risk being a “laughing stock” going forward if they do not address the growing disharmony within the party. “I want to tell Kenyans to pray for both President Uhuru and his deputy. If they don’t sit and talk, they will be a laughing stock. Satan out there is ready to drag them through the mud,” said Mandago.
